Research Leadership Network (RLN) Program

The AACN Research Leadership Network (RLN) invites nursing faculty who have leadership roles facilitating research within their nursing programs to this annual breakfast workshop on advancing nursing science with cutting-edge research methods. All are welcome to attend and to explore the use of big data and its application to omics research and geospatial information systems as tools for population-based and health services research. This interactive session includes opportunities for participants to share their experiences using these methodologies in their own research, and discover collaborative opportunities using these and other research methods.
